    I've read that a pen drive can't be used on Windows 95? Is there a way that I can make this happen anyways? I am a guidance counselor that works at 2 schools, and my computer is Windows 95 at one school and XP at another. However, I am not limited to this computer, I can use the newer computers in the school library. But it would be more convient for me.:)


    Thanks,

    Windows 95 had USB support, as an afterthrought, and after 3 revisions of the OS-Windows 95, 95a, 95b <--.

    Even then, USB was shaky. Now, throw in the fact that 95 will have no drivers for it, and the manufacturer likely built the device after Windows 95 was retired.

    No drivers, no support.

    Sorry :(

    I was just hoping that somebody out there had a sense of humor, and has made some freeware for it :(
